The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When this is over
I hope I take a little less for granted
Hope I'm a little more understandin'
When some things don't make sense
When this is over
I hope I smile at a passin' stranger
Take time to get to know my neighbors
And break bread every now and then
Oh, oh, oh 'cause right now all I got is time
To think about the bottom line
What I have, where I stand
How I live, who I am
I hope these hard times make me better and not just older
When this is over
I hope I stay out of my head
And I'm a little more empathetic
Put myself in people's shoes
When this is over
I'll kiss the ground and send a prayer to the sky
Thank God I'm breathin' air and alive
And I get one more day with you, oh, oh
'Cause right now all I got is time (hey)
To think about my bottom line (yeah, yeah)
And what I have (what I have), where I stand (where I stand)
How I live and who I am (who I am)
I hope these hard times make me better, not just older
When this is over, oh, oh
'Cause right now all I got is this
It's just a simple someday wish
Oh, yeah
And what I have (what I have), where I stand (where I stand)
How I live and who I am
I hope these hard times make me better, not just older
When this, when this is over (when this is over)
Oh, yeah
When this is over
I hope these hard times make me better
I hope the distance brings us closer
When this, when this, when this is over
When this is over
Ladies and gentlemen, The Oak Ridge Boys
Right now all I got is time
To think about the bottom line
What I have, where I stand
How I live and who I am
I hope these hard times make me better, not just older
When this is over
